Web-based image editor: DPaint.js
"DPaint.js" by 'Steffest' is a web-based image editor focusing on Amiga file formats, strongly inspired by the classic DPaint. It is run directly in the browser (works also with the MorphOS browser Wayfarer) and can read and write all kinds of Amiga icons and IFF images. As the developer writes, he developed it mainly because he wanted to have a modern tool for creating Amiga icons with a focus on colour reduction and dithering, to quickly convert modern images into old-school icons, and to edit files on ADF disks directly without having to start an emulator.
Originally intended as a modern icon editor for Amiga icons, the programme developed into a full-fledged image editor with the following main features:
- Fully Featured image editor with:
- Layers
- Selections
- Masking
- Transformation tools
- Effects and filters
- Multiple undo/redo
- Copy/Paste from any other image program or image source
- Customizable dither tools
- Heavy focus on colour reduction with fine-grained dithering options
- Amiga focus:
- Read/write/convert Amiga icon files (all formats)
- Reads IFF ILBM images (all formats including HAM and 24-bit)
- Writes IFF ILBM images (up to 32 colors)
- Read and write directly from Amiga Disk Files (ADF)
- Embedded Amiga Emulator to preview your work in the real Deluxe Paint
The editor is still in alpha stage, the source code is available on GitHub. Both initial documentation and a short introduction video are available. Bug reports and suggestions for further features are welcome. (dr)

Game soundtrack: MicroProse Soccer (D4XX Remix)
If the prospect of the upcoming short week is not enough motivation, Bert 'D4XX REMIX' Brüggemann's latest work is highly recommended: his remix of the main theme of the game "MicroProse Soccer" is based on the original music by Martin Galway for the C64 (YouTube video) and its conversion by Barry Leitch for the Amiga version (YouTube video) and already brings some Oktoberfest atmosphere into spring...

AmigaOS 4: CPU profiler "Tequila" 1.0
Juha 'capehill' Niemimaki's "Tequila" is a simple CPU profiler which samples current running tasks. At the moment it's not very accurate or feature-rich, but it will detect if some task is using CPU.

AmigaOS 4: mySQLcontrol 2.10, myApacheStarter 3.10
mySQLcontrol by Michael Christoph is a database administration and editing program for the mySQL database server under AmigaOS 4. It requires the MySQL database server included in Edgar Schwan's development environment AAMP (and update if necessary).
As the author writes, databases and tables can be created, deleted and changed via a Reaction-based interface. The table structure can also be changed. A SQL-QUERY query can also be used to select, display and edit specific data records. Likewise, a connection to a mySQL server on another computer or on the Internet can be established via the Prefs window.
The current version 2.10 has been recompiled with the current SDK (see also part 1 and part 2 of our "Introduction to the Software Development Kit"), gcc and AAMP libs. Likewise, many of the (SQL) error texts that were previously fixed in the programme have been translated and moved out. The programme can be requested free of charge by filling out the form under the title link.
Michael Christoph has also recompiled his tool myApacheStarter for starting, stopping and configuring the Apache web server with the current SDK and gcc and released it as version 3.10. (dr)

USB-C Power Supply for Amiga announced
At the title link a USB-C-based power supply called "PowerShark" has been announced for Amiga 500, 600 and 1200. Battery-powered USB-C chargers would also be supported, as would magnetic USB-C adapters.
Currently, however, only a text-only description has been published. But with BeamRacer (for the C64) there exists already a purchasable product from Mad Hackers Lab, and a CAD screenshot of the PowerShark is available to amiga-news.de. (snx)

Mastodon client: Amidon 1.1
Dimitris 'MiDWaN' Panokostas, author of the Amiga emulator Amiberry, has released version 1.1 of his Mastodon client Amidon for AmigaOS 3 (amiga-news.de reported). Changes:
- Implemented Profile view
- Updated Readme with more details on the requirements
- Added more icons (GlowIcon, MagicWB, 4-color)
- Eliminated the dependency on the MUI Hyperlink class, as it caused issues with some users and it's not part of the MUI 3.9 package.
- Redesigned the Login process, instead of a link to press on, you now have a copy/paste procedure with buttons to help you.
- Only open the Login window if a server name was provided. Otherwise the link would be empty and there wasn't much of a point.
- Fixed a crash when trying to save settings without having logged in first (Anonymous mode).

Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.10
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported)
The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac. Yesterday version 1.10 of the Greaseweazle Tools was released providing the following changes:
- New diskdef ibm.160
- gw erase: New option --revs=N
- gw read: Fix --retries=0
- MacOS: Explicitly search for CAPS library under /Library/Frameworks
- gw: Minor fixes to flux-to-bitcell conversion
- gw: Disallow abbreviated long option names
- SCP: Fix footer metadata format

Amiga disks on PC: FloppyBridge 1.4
Using Robert Smith's plugin FloppyBridge (video on how it works), emulators like WinUAE and Amiberry can work in real time with real floppy disks. Today he has released version 1.4. Changes since our last news item:
Version 1.4
- Fixed issues with stalling mode not working properly, or not as expected
- Updated stalling mode to work better with diskspare device which seems to be very impatient! (writing is not recommended!)
- Updated the icons for the supported hardware and rendered them transparently
Version 1.3
- Fixed Greaseweazle Drive A/B not selectable properly
- Fixed issue with warning message about diskchange on Greaseweazle always re-appearing
- Fixed Greaseweazle Shugart support. (**Does not support disk change** - it will manually check for disks. A PC Drive is strongly recommended)
- Re-worked the profile listing dialog a little

AmigaOS 4: Shader player Shaderjoy 1.25
Shaderjoy allows displaying and creating Shadertoy compatible fragment shaders. Fragment shaders, also called pixel shaders, are programs that are executed per fragment (pixel) on the GPU.The ogles2.library 3.2 and Warp3D Nova 54.16 are required. Now Juha "Capehill" Niemimaki has released version 1.25. Changes:
- Add keyboard channel. Also remove some keyboard shortcuts to avoid conflicts.
- Add projects files (.sjp) for those example shaders that require textures.
- Replace text buttons with more compact images.
- Show busy pointer during shader compilation.
- Disable uninitialized variable check (in icon) due to glCompileShader issue with some shaders: future ogles2.library should fix this.
- Fix loading of arexx.class.
- Fix busy looping of ChannelWindows.
- Refactor some GUI code.

Programming: TLS library Crypto Ancienne 2.2
Crypto Ancienne by Cameron Kaiser is a TLS library compatible with pre-C99 C compilers and "geriatric architectures", according to the author.
